How ever, by opening and closing cur tains, by the addition of chairs, and by the excellent lighting, the setting seems to take on different aspects. At one time it is a city street, at another it is a court of law and at another it is a room in Portia's home. The costumes, some designed by Whaley and others imported from New York and Philadel phia, were colorful. The make up was superb. especially that of Wilder and of Ken Williams, who played the sailer. Adding to the authentic air was the use of 16th Century instru ments, the virginal, lute and flute. Director Warren Smith and his fine cast deserve a bravo for bringing the best play the Schwab boards have held all year. whereas if this practice did not exist he might have to spend a great deal of money on his first date with her only to find out they are not compatible.

WSGA Senate House Council By MARIE RUSSO, The formation of House Councils for every residence hall unit was approved by the Women's Government Association Senate upon first reading day night. The motion must be approved twice before it can part of the constitution. These councils, which were proposed at the WSGA retreat, would consist of the president, vice president an d secretary treasurer of the living units. The vice president would preside, the, secretary-treasurer would act as secretary and the hostess would be an ex-officio member. The House Councils would hear minor violations of WSGA rules and regulations and would have the authority to penalize violators. The WSGA judicial board would act as a court of appeals and would hear major violations. With the installation of the councils in the fall, each of the big residence halls will have four councils. The motion of add one senior senator to the Senate and drop the town senator was passed for the first time. A motion to make the chair men of the WSGA standing committees ex-officio members of Senate was also passed for the first time. Janet Moore, sophomore in home economics from Pittsburgh, was elected Senate parliamentar ian. Mrs. R. Mae Schultz, assistant dean of women, and Audrey Jer sun, judicial chairman, said the appearance of coeds wearing Jamaica shorts and uncovered gym suits has caused disfavor and steps will be taken to "get tougher."
